And I'm not disagreeing with you, but around the web I see a lot of articles about African Americans lacking in media representation (and I'm not saying those articles are wrong), but almost no articles about Hispanic and Latino representation. It just seems like an odd disconnect, given that the latter group is a…

The people who should be super upset are Latinos. I've never understood why there isn't more outcry about the lack of Latino representation in our media. 16% of our population self identifies as Hispanic or Latinos, but good luck finding one on television that isn't playing a maid or lawn mower. It's outrageous!

The Wheel of Time! Robert Jordan was really losing his edge in the last few books he wrote, but the world he had created was wonderful. Brandon Sanderson stepped in and breathed some much needed new life into the series while remaining true to RJ's original vision. The last few books were fantastic.

The Cutting Edge is incredible! I've been singing its praises for years.

I don't see how the award has anything to do with it though. It's really shitty that the case wasn't investigated in a timely manner, but it wasn't, so we'll never really know what happened. He won an award for how well he plays football, not for how good a person he is.

To add to Isner-mahut's comments, here is the full list of single women who have sold more records than Beyonce, in order from fewest to most records sold: Reba McEntire, Lady Gaga, Shania Twain, Gloria Estefan, Tina Turner, Olivia Newton-John, Cher, Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, Donna Summer, Barbra Streisand,…

I think people are mostly commenting to tell the editorial staff that they're a little bit tired of the nonstop Beyonce coverage. If no one comments on Beyonce articles to say that don't really care that much, then the writers and contributors will see only glowing comments and write more things about a person who a…

I can't agree more! I'm a huge music fan, but I've just never been into her stuff. It's too polished, and her concerts are basically long, staged routines. My favorite artist, Andrew McMahon, is the exact opposite. Every single one of his songs is intimate and personal, because he wrote them all and he pours his soul…

It's Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore, and it's this silly, self aware celebration of the cheesiness of 80's pop music.

Just out of curiosity, what do you think Fruitvale Station should have been up for? I haven't seen Philomena yet, but I can't see it beating out any of the other nominations. It was a very competitive year for dramas. If anything, I would have wanted to see Dallas Buyers Club replace either Rush or Philomena. I hope…

Exactly, but it isn't supposed to be romantic. It's about love in general, whether it's parental love, first love, sibling love, betrayed love, etc. The point of the move is that love can build us up, totally crush us, and everything in between.

Have you seen Music and Lyrics? That is Hugh Grant's other great movie, in my opinion.

No mention of Billy Mack or Colin, god of sex? Not sure if serious... For reals though, that movie is amazing.

Yeah, it's weird that he added all those shitty stories, but honestly, the shoes are kinda cool. I don't see why a stupid story would ruin anyone's appreciation for the show.

I suppose, but I just can't bring myself to blame someone for trying. If someone is miscast, I blame the casting department, not the actor.

Well, she had been in some episodes of How I Met Your Mother, and a lot of if not most musicians did some kind of school theater stuff theater growing up, but this was her first big, live, musical production. She's definitely catching way too much flak. I think a lot of people here are annoyed with the "need Jesus"…

No, Stephen Moyer was not good either. And the reason Carrie Underwood is getting the brunt is because to advertising and promotional stuff featured her name and picture so prominently. It was a total ploy for viewers on the part of the network (which was successful, because the ratings were good). After all, the fact…

I don't know; I've only ever heard people use the phrase "Xyz needs Jesus," as a joke. I interpreted her tweet as a light-hearted dismissal of her online detractors, rather than a serious statement.

She's been in a handful of off-Broadway stage productions, but she doesn't have any serious musical theater credentials. She's an incredible actress, but the witch in Into the Woods should have gone to Bernadette Peters. The only reason they cast Streep (and Johnny Depp) is because they wanted a household name to put…

I hear you. And I'm rewatching Bunheads right now on Amazon Prime. I just rewatched the episode called the Astronaut and the Ballerina yesterday, and I had forgotten how amazing it is. There's an extended take of her arguing with brother (both irl and on the show) about their mother that's absolutely brilliant. The…
